ProLiant ML350 G3 Immediately Powers Off

I have a ProLiant ML350 G3 that was working fine in one building. I moved it (rather carefully I thought) to another location. When I hit the power button everything fires up for about 3 secs then shuts back down. I have replaced the motherboard and the CPU as well as the power converter module.

Any ideas what could be causing this? Could it be a bad power supply? The green light on the back of it is only on when I push the button, then turns off like the rest of the server. Not sure if that should be green at all times or not as I can not recall when it was working.

Hi

Good Information.

CR26 is NB alert LED. CR26 being RED indicates Memory problem. Not sure if you have Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition II installed and configured to login remotely to check integrated management logs for more information on failure.

make sure HP memory dimms are being installed. processor, memory, PPM's, and other components are seated properly. bring the server to base configuration with minimum set of memory etc.

Turns out it was either a bad CPU or not seated properly. I took out the first and moved the second over and it started up, I havent tried the first one in the second slot yet as I am just happy its working.
